BBC-WS obviously doesn't view us as 'worthy' listeners . Sadly
enough ...

Does not bother me. The fewer loud signals from doorstep transmitters
I have clogging up my airwaves, the better to hear the faint DX. BBC
is available from so many outlets now that I can forego them
broadcasting at my house from Sackville or Greenville or some such
place :-)

HF Broadcast is dead. I get 2 BBCWS audio streams at the touch of a
button on a WiFi radio about the same footprint of an ICF-SW12. The only
people who listen to HFBC in Region 2 are end-timers, survivalists and
other antisocial types.

"The axing of five foreign language services and wholesale retreat from
shortwave radio – including the end of broadcasts to India, Russia and
China – will lead to the loss of more than 30 million listeners, a sixth
of the World Service's global audience of 180 million, the BBC
estimates. The five language services being shut down – Portuguese for
Africa, Caribbean English, Macedonian, Serbian and Albanian – have a
combined audience of 3.4 million."

Caribbean English WTF? Good riddance! I can't feature Jamaicans
listening to scratchy shortwave broadcasts so some snooty Englishman can
talk down to them in Pidgin English.

Each area of the Carribean has developed it's own dialect of English .
None of them are classified as pidgin,absolutely not . And BBC-WS
always had a strong presence on AM and FM locally until recently, not
exactly sure what is happening at the present time .
